Product Review
IBS Chitosan is a useful product to use when ingesting fatty products to help with the excretion of the fat products. It however only produces temporary results for the meals ingested while taking this product. No long term fixes are present as a result of intaking this product for any duration of time.
If you are allergic to seafood, you should not take this product due to the fact the the fiber is made from exoskeletons of shellfish. If bloating or stomach pains are present, it would also be a good idea to stop taking this product as it can produce unwanted side effects.
